“…However, they also observe a premium stemming from the migration experience on the labour market, suggesting that returnees have acquired some skills that make them more productive in the home country labour market. Iara (2006) finds that young male returnees from Western Europe receive a substantial wage premium in the labour markets in Central and Eastern Europe. However, her analysis shows the existence of a positive self-selection of both out-migrants and returnees.…”

“…In spite of the intensive return waves of migrants – in particular from Central and Eastern Europe – there exists limited evidence on the economic implications of such labour movement back to source countries (see De Coulon and Piracha, 2005; Iara, 2006; Fihel and Grabowska-Lusińska, 2014; Grabowska, 2016; Martin and Radu, 2012). Moreover, the knowledge on whether and under which circumstances the returnees are able to productively exploit the skills acquired during the migration spell is generally scarce in the migration studies literature.…”

“…Literature detects a number of other returnee‐specific advantages such as earnings premium (Hazans, 2016; Iara, 2008; Martin & Radu, 2012; Piracha, 2015; Tverdostup & Masso, 2016). On the other hand, positive returns to migration may not always be the case.…”

“…Allow us to highlight two of them here – Ireland and Mexico – both linked mostly to return migration from the USA. First, we know that returnees to both Ireland (Barrett & O’Connell, 2001; Barrett & Goggin, 2010; Iara, 2008) and Mexico (Reinhold & Thom, 2009) have higher earnings after accumulating work experience abroad than at home during the same period. Second, human capital accumulation might be also a trigger to return and perform better in the labor market (Dustmann, Fadlon, & Weiss, 2010).…”
